A tipping point has been reached. Gaza is now starving to death in front of the whole world. Those who facilitated and justified this abomination were given ample warning for 21 months. You have no excuses, and nowhere to hide: you will be held to account for what you've done.

‼️ The UK Foreign Secretary, @DavidLammy, denies that Israel is committing a genocide of the Palestinian people – the evidence shows that he is wrong. I’ve just taken action with @WaronWant to demand that David Lammy tells the truth. Will you join me? secure.waronwant.org/page/160318/ac…
Taxation: keep it simple By @MikeHedgesAM Keep tax simple: charge the same rate on all income. National insurance should be at the same level for all earned income; link council tax to the actual value of a property; treat all inherited wealth the same labourhub.org.uk/2025/07/23/tax…
UK welfare spending is 10.6% of GDP. Right wing press never mentions that it is well below the OECD average. UK has some of the least generous welfare across OECD. No questions asked about corporate welfare, uncosted tax reliefs to corporations/rich. gov.uk/government/pub…
Good to see @RichardBurgon and @garyseconomics making the case for wealth taxes. Austerity is a political choice. Balancing the books on the most vulnerable is cruel and unnecessary. We need wealth taxes. Now.
It was great to bump into @garyseconomics as I was delivering my petition for a Wealth Tax to 10 Downing Street. Gary has done an absolutely amazing job making the case for a wealth tax and real action against wealth inequality. This is a campaign we are going to win!

The UK Government claims that it is "doing all it can" to bring about a ceasefire in Gaza. The truth is, it is complicit in Israel's genocide on Gaza: here's why.

The decision to suspend the whip from four MPs for opposing cuts to welfare payments for disabled people is wrong - and has to be reversed. Sign the petition to demand their reinstatement: actionnetwork.org/petitions/rein… @compassoffice @peoplesmomentum @openlabour
Shaking up the PLP: Meet @NeilForPoole Neil recently had the Whip suspended for standing up for real Labour values. 🌹 Here, he talks about how he first got involved in politics and what advice he would give to the Labour Government.
It’s no secret that Jeremy has been a reluctant opponent of Labour. That role has been forced upon him. John’s spot on that the Labour’s leaders should get him back in the fold - because if the Leader’s faction don’t do this their legacy could well be 1 one of enabling Farage.
'Whatever they think about him, Jeremy is an asset to the party.' Labour's @johnmcdonnellMP calls for a 'rapprochement' with @jeremycorbyn.
No point reshuffling the pack when it’s stuffed full of jokers
A reshuffle of the Conservative front bench is under way. Kemi Badenoch’s leadership rival James Cleverly will return to a major role. But what about that other rival Robert Jenrick? All eyes on whether she moves / promotes him, given his soaring profile.

Ten questions I want the Orgreave Inquiry to answer 40 years after the Battle of Orgreave, when police brutally attacked striking miners, the Govt has finally conceded a Public Inquiry. Paul Winter, who was arrested there that day sets out what he wants. labourhub.org.uk/2025/07/22/ten…
In June last year the Foreign Office judged that there was no risk of genocide in Gaza. Today I asked David Lammy if the government now believed there was a plausible risk of genocide but he refused to answer & not even agree to his officials doing an assessment.
